Wedding Album with Graphic 45 Mon Amour Collection

I have been waiting patiently to show you this beautiful album I made for my Niece and her new hubby. I finished it several weeks ago, but I could not share it until I presented it to her because she follows my work too.

Here is the cover ......

I cut the signature page down and glued the edges to the cover.
This allows for tags and pretty ephemera to be inserted.
Of course with this lovely vintage paper I had to add some lace.

I used a tutorial from Paper Phenomenon, the Traditions Genealogy Scrapbook. This tutorial was very easy to use and makes a great "larger" mini album. Here is the inside front cover......

This is the inside front cover with Insert #5 tucked in the pocket from the Photo Mats and Inserts #1 tutorial. I added Spellbinders heart die cuts to add the names of the Bride and Groom.

Page 1 front, inside and back.......

This album is perfect for 8x10 and 5x7 photos as well.

Lots of room to add 4x6 photos without trimming!

Back of page 1

Soooo many flaps and pockets! Lots and lots of room for photos and memorabilia. Here's page 2......

Inside page 2

This project took quite a bit of paper too. I used most of two 12x12, two 8x8, and one 6x6 pads. The ephemera pack and Prima flowers rounded out the embellishments. Here is page 3 .....

Back of page 3 is the centre of the book with two facing pages the same. I slipped in a couple of Photo Mats from Tutorial #1.

This is the back of page 4 and start of page 5.....

Back of page 6 and the inside of the back cover .....

Whew! That is a big scrapbook!

My niece loved it and now needs a little help getter her pictures into the book. I guess I might be persuaded to make it back to San Diego for a visit as long as the weather is nice. Hope you enjoyed my latest scrapbook project using a Paper Phenomenon tutorial.

You have made an absolutely gorgeous album for your niece! The paper is perfect, so romantic and timeless. I hope she truly realizes what a treasure this is not only for your fabulous craftsmanship but for this being a true labor of love. Way to go...you really did justice to Kathy's designs...you should both be proud--Kathy because you chose her designs and executed them in a superb showing and you because it's a truly wonderful heartfelt gift and you are sharing the credit with her for her design.
